Testimonials for Decent Chaps Jazz & Swing

"Please pass on our heartfelt thanks to the band who played at our wedding reception last Saturday. I lost count of how many times people excitedly asked me where I’d found you – the guests (many of whom are themselves professional musicians by the way!) were most impressed and thoroughly enjoyed the evening’s live music. Many thanks "

Peter Siepmann PhD, LRSM, ARCO Director of Music

" Hi Caroline, just a quick message to say thank you to Alan and the band for their excellent music at the garden party. Many, many people have commented on how it added a great atmosphere to the day and I even had a comment that one of our guests, whose music of choice is hip hop/club music, was tapping his feet along to the music!! I also appreciated them persevering, despite the dreadful weather"

Lisa F - "Royal Garden Party"

"Hi Caroline, I just thought I’d drop you an email to thank Decent Chaps for playing at our OSCARS event. They went down very well and were great. We shall definitely consider them again. "

""Decent Chaps” are excellent, this band played for us more than once, and unlike many in the industry, had excellent stage presence, their reliability was second to none, and their value for money was great. Anybody having a function be it corporate or a wedding and wants the very best in Jazz and Swing, well here it is. The fact we booked them more than once is testimony to their quality."
